Isaiah was Samuel's and Samuel was Isaiah's. That was the way it was since the beginning, and the way it was to be until the end. In the barn they tended to the animals, but also to each other, transforming the hollowed-out shed into a place of human refuge, a source of intimacy and hope in a world ruled by vicious masters. But when an older man—a fellow slave—seeks to gain favor by preaching the master's gospel on the plantation, the enslaved begin to turn on their own. Isaiah and Samuel's love, which was once so simple, is seen as sinful and a clear danger to the plantation's harmony. With a lyricism reminiscent of Toni Morrison, Robert Jones, Jr., fiercely summons the voices of slaver and enslaved alike, from Isaiah and Samuel to the calculating slave master to the long line of women that surround them, women who have carried the soul of the plantation on their shoulders. As tensions build and the weight of centuries—of ancestors and future generations to come—culminates in a climactic reckoning, The Prophets fearlessly reveals the pain and suffering of inheritance, but is also shot through with hope, beauty, and truth, portraying the enormous, heroic power of love.

Download or read book Holy Bible Prophets Speak written by and published by 4 Sterlings LLC. This book was released on 2022-12-18 with total page 1569 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: HOLY BIBLE PROPHETS SPEAK is a reference document which provides a topical arrangement of the vast majority of outstanding scriptural quotes of principles, truths, and key figures and familiar stories from The Old and New Testaments, with particular focus on selections from the four Gospels. It also includes minimal necessary introductory context for clarification particularly in the Four Gospels section. The organization of countless quotations and entries in HOLY BIBLE PROPHETS SPEAK, all considered sacred scripture, is a modest attempt to gather comprehensively and representatively from the above-stated book the plain and precious truths revealed anciently. The countless entries are arranged alphabetically under well over a thousand topic or subject headings, with cross-referencing throughout, and with many being placed under multiple related headings to facilitate easy access. Meticulous documentation is also provided throughout the entire document. The Bible has been taken in translated versions to most countries throughout the world in presenting the teachings of Jesus Christ and ancient prophets. Countless volumes have been written about the Bible, ranging from a child’s animated versions to highly sophisticated, technical, archaeological and scientific studies of their early backgrounds and authenticity. The King James Version of the Bible is used for this volume. Millions of followers testify of the power and validity of the Holy Bible. This book has been compiled and topically organized to help a reader readily find the ennobling truths taught by the ancient prophets. The topic entries are presented in near full context. Great effort was especially made in selecting entries from the four gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, though with particular effort to avoid unnecessary duplication. HOLY BIBLE PROPHETS SPEAK in no way proposes to replace the value of a person’s reading and enjoying the full text of The Old and New Testaments themselves. Therein are innumerable stories and text which present live and gripping images that touch people’s hearts, and are the foundation in building the character and divine witness in millions regarding the truth of the teachings therein.

Download or read book Their Master s Voice written by Chris Woodall and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2020-11-03 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of the five books that make up the Major Prophets in the Old Testament, three are amongst the largest of the Bible: Isaiah, Jeremiah, and Ezekiel. As if to underscore their Major status, each one is significantly longer than the Minor Prophets combined. Although the specific details of each prophet’s contribution differ, a more general overarching theme may be discerned in them all: to remind their respective target audiences of their covenantal obligations. The prevailing human condition throughout the ages ensures that, while circumstances, cultural development, and technological advancements do change with time, the underlying sinful disposition of mankind remains constant in every epoch. Mercifully, God’s messages to both victim and perpetrator alike are similarly unchanging. In the stream of progressive revelation, it would be irresponsible simply to dip into the waters of the Old Testament and translate its lessons to our day without due process. That process might include asking certain questions of the texts under consideration. Are the lessons provided by these Old Testament saints applicable to us as Christians in the twenty-first century? Do their words still speak today? Only if Christian believers are still prone to such folly as chasing disposable pleasures instead of choosing meaningful pursuits.
